Though many — including Britney Spears, Mariah Carey, and Jennifer Lopez — have preceded her as Sin City headliners, Gaga’s foray into the Vegas spotlight charts new territory for mainstream pop acts. She’s arguably the most prominent contemporary artist to secure a permanent gig on the strip, a spot typically reserved for artists whose robust legacies outpace their current clout on the charts. 

Gaga has set a new standard for mainstream acts perching in Vegas, as she heads to Nevada on the heels of a successful world tour, the most-watched Super Bowl halftime show of all time, another platinum album (Joanne), and a top five, Grammy-nominated hit song (“Million Reasons”) under her belt in 2017 alone. Still, there’s no denying the sizable catalog of past cuts she has to choose from when creating the set for the as-yet-untitled show.

I think this is the thing to remember guys. The other artists that are older are able to do this because they have created this legacy and now people go to these shows to celebrate it. The fact that Gaga is still relevant AND relatively newer in the grand scope of things, it’s amazing that she has made a name for herself as someone people would want to see in Vegas. I mean, there are not many artists that could pull off a  residency tbh. They wouldn’t be able to bring in consistently high numbers. Gaga is just special because even though she doesn’t have the legacy yet, she has created her brand around being an incredible live performer AND vocalist.
